Nicely done Bob. Thanks for taking the time to produce a time saving and convenient way to reset the indicators for a custom configuration. I look forward to your next video production.
Or you could back the internal screw way down (power wise), turn the PW to max and slowly adjust more tension into the screw until you reach max velocity for your given reg pressure. No disassembly required
Nice video, very informative. I have found this does not work on the newest of the Crown MKIIs. The screw on the new Crowns needs to be longer not shorter. Using the method in the video caused my Crown to lose power, not gain. I lengthened the screw from how it came from the factory and now I’m getting the power. My Crown has the new hammer power wheel with 24 positions. If you have a new Crown MKII you may want to try just the opposite of what is in this video. I have confirmed with the FX techs that this is not the way to reset the new MKII Crown hammer to max. The screw should be in the neighborhood of 7.45mm out from the hammer spring cover. Also, the newest of the Crowns have a barrel that can be turned over to get more air for slugs.
Merry Christmas...Very informative in the absence of details from FX!!!. This looks the same for my Dreamline Tact. Can you advise Allen key measurements for release of the spring (working in from butt section) and howe many approx turns as well as Allen Key size for screw adjustment? Tks
Where can this Ernest Rowe Tuning Kit be purchased? I have the new MarkII.22cal 500mm barrel and would like to increase my hammer spring to get the fps up to the stated specs of 920 fps instead of the 773 I'm getting now. I went to the Ernest Rowe website and they don't list it anywhere. Thanks and good video.
Happy New Year Bob, I have a question. Is the larger spring underneath the slider supposed to glide freely? I just now noticed when I tip the barrel up or down I can hear the spring slide back and forth. I took the stock off for visual confirmation. Gun seems to shoot fine. Any ideas? Thank you sir
Interesting how different you need to set these regulators the acheive about 900 fps muzzle velocity, I shoot the .25 cal 25,39 grain JSBs at 885 fps with a reg pressure of 110 bar! Of course the gauge might be off a few bar but still.
Haha funny Mans because I was thinking the same thing. My 700mm .25 Crown throwing 25.39 JSB’s, 900fps, reg 128 bar yet watching so many others with these same models running up and beyond 140 bar, had me wondering if I should try bumping mine up but I just might leave it alone too
Very good information on ajusting the fx hammer wheel BOB_O good schooling , going to purchase a FX 30CAL soon do you know can it be ajusted like your 22cal .
If it's a Crown, they are the same across calibers. If it's an Impact, Boss, Wildcat or Bobcat....they will be different. If it's a Dreamline, it will be the same
Hey Bob how many more fps did you get with the upgrade? I have my .25 Crown set to 150 bar and hammer spring maxed out and shooting the varmint knocker 31 and 1/2 grain varment knocker slugs at 910 ft per second. Only shot at 12yards but all the holes were touching.
Hi Bob. Is it worth it to buy the DonnyFL adaptor and moderator in comparison to the shroud fully extended? It looks way better than the fully extended shroud, but does it damp the sound more? I am looking to do the same for my .22 crown, but only if it’s worth it. Thanks
Yes for sure it is worth it. The improvement over just an extended shroud is significant. Reason being with the shroud extended, all you gain is about 4" (you can adjust for more if you like) of wide open empty baffle. No different than FX's stackable baffle sections for the Wildcat or Impact. With the shroud locked to the rear and DonnyFL of your choice on there, you get an actual suppressor, with a multi-chamber core and sound dampening material. The result is remarkable. The factory shroud can't compare with an actual suppressor. Bow with a low power setup, it might not matter much, but if crank up the power even a little, the factory shroud won't do much to quiet it down.
@@BullseyeBob do u have too put it on minimum, what if u put it back with max on top?or doesnt that matter at all?I'm trying to understand if it makes any difference or not,rest of your video is very clear(I'll try reset mine thanks to this video), apart from minimum setting on top....hope u can chime in a bit more..
@@BullseyeBob yes I was serious... I thought I seen you adjust that D5 screw from both sides... I rewatched the vid ... you didn't ... my bad... carry on... lol
At 2:52 a magnet would get that little ball bearing out easier than needle nose pliers. Very nice excellent video.

Thanks Haji!!
Great info Bob. Thank you.
Appreciate the information Bob. I just wish I could get one of Ernests hammer kits for my new .25 Crown

I I can get 900fps at 130 bar. The short barrel on the Crown 22 (500mm) needs more pressure.
@@BullseyeBob Yes of course, I forgot the .177/.22 have shorter barrels.

Hi bob just wondered what resolution you record your footage on while using the side shot mount. Many thanks sv
I always do 1080p at 120fps when shooting or hunting. :-)
@@BullseyeBob cheers buddy what camera app you using? I'm using camera app but doesn't have 1080p on the settings
in 9:09 , does that mean, if i decrease the protrusion of the screw in the slider, it will increase the tension and increase the power/velocity

Is the hammer spring set up the same on the dream line same 2ball bearings?
can I remove bottle with 100 bar air inside sir?

Hi did u do the mod yourself or can u buy it mate .thx
Oh no, I can't do this stuff myself. You can buy it from FX USA. Just email or give them a call.
Why you screwed the wheel when you put it in with MIN on top? Should it not have been Max on Top?
All you have to do is rotate the wheel to MAX.
@@BullseyeBob do u have too put it on minimum, what if u put it back with max on top?or doesnt that matter at all?I'm trying to understand if it makes any difference or not,rest of your video is very clear(I'll try reset mine thanks to this video), apart from minimum setting on top....hope u can chime in a bit more..
@@jarnitrulli you can put it on whatever position you choose. Currently on my Impact, my Max is actually 3.
Good job sir, one of these days I'll get me a crown
Hi really good clip, however, has a question,
where can I buy this kit?
can I remove the air inside sir?
Yes, the bottle has its own valve so you can remove it with any amount of air left inside.
What's the size of the Allen key ? 1.27mm ?
Not sure.....1.5mm?
@@BullseyeBob thanks
It appeared that you reinstalled the hammer tension wheel in the MIN position and rotated it to Max. Oops.
It doesn't matter what position it's in when you reinstall.
Wouldn’t that be to ensure when at MAX, the tension increases from the minimum setting?
would have been more helpful if you'd showed where to add lok-tite
If you're serious James, it would go on the threads of the D5 screw.
@@BullseyeBob yes I was serious... I thought I seen you adjust that D5 screw from both sides... I rewatched the vid ... you didn't ... my bad... carry on... lol
Haha if you honestly need help to figure out where loctite goes, if I might respectfully suggest you shouldn’t be working on these guns
@@FYMM69 ha ha bite me.... respectfully !
